Leadership coaching supports leaders in achieving the results that are important to personal and professional success as well as the success of his or her team and organization. My role as a coach is to draw out the client’s expertise through inquiry, curiosity and gentle challenges. I help the client to stretch into his or her best self as a leader. To do that, I introduce self-observation exercises and behavioral practices. I help the client to focus on his or her presence and behaviors. I seek mutual understanding of the organizational culture and systems (including policies and practices) within which the client leads. My role as a coach is distinct from consulting, advising, therapy, or counseling. However, coaching does address issues or conditions that impact a leader’s professional effectiveness.

Outcomes

The anticipated outcomes of leadership coaching for the client include:

Identification of the key behaviors to increase leadership effectiveness.

Involvement and commitment of stakeholders (i.e., direct reports, peers, support staff, supervisor) in the process of increasing effectiveness.

With sufficient client commitment to the process, measurable improvement will be noticeable and measurable (by ongoing feedback from stakeholders) on specific leadership behaviors.

effectiveness for the client and the client organization, based on increased capacity to achieve results through building and maintaining healthy relationships.

Confidentiality

Coaching is based on confidentiality. Confidentiality is essential to building the trust needed for an effective working relationship between the client and the coach.

The client will have sole discretion to share or not share feedback assessments, the content of coaching conversations and any other information from the coaching process; however these tools are encouraged to be a part of the coaching process. I will encourage the client to be open with his or her manager regarding progress. I will also, when appropriate and with the client’s agreement, suggest interventions between the client and the client’s manager or other parties to assess progress and identify supportive next steps.
